Well, he hit 8.59 kg. So far that is his highest weight yet. He's been in the mid 8.40s all week because he's been waking up out of a sound sleep between 3 and 5 throwing up. I'm hoping last night was the last night of that. It's horrible, I can hear his stomach gurgle and then up it comes. As you may have guessed that is making sleep for me difficult because I feel "on call" to make sure he doesn't aspirate in his sleep. Consequently, I got sick. Blah. But, I'm already starting to feel better. My mom took the older boys to her house this afternoon so Logan and I could have a nice, sound nap and she brought me some soup later. My mimi brought us some yummy cheese enchiladas that my Aunt Cheryl had made. I couldn't resist a bite. They looked too yummy! So, I had quite the pampering today. I feel much better and hopefully soon we can have that zoo date with Jessica and baby Matthew. Logan has restarted the growth hormone again since his phosphorous is close enough to goal. I am wondering whether this is what has increased the throwing up but only time will tell. I don't know whether it is a coincidence or not. Hopefully it will help him gain his last 3 1/4 lbs. He is so close and yet still so far.

Jess- please know I find your strength inspiring the truthfulness of your words is so endearing. I think of you and Logan often and you are constanly in my prayers.
Woo HOO HGH... They were going to start Aidan on this before everything happened. Aidan has started to grow though now that they removed his g-tube mic-key and put in a g-j mic-key. The J is supposed to keep him from puking everything in his belly up.
As for the puking I am so sorry. I know how this feels. Aidan was a notorious in the morning puker... I had to change his sheets constantly I was always doing laundry.
I hope everyone gets to feeling better soon!
